All our difficulties always come only to make us progress. Most complain about their difficulties and blame misfortune, some “enemy”, a painful childhood, a stressful job or family situation, bad karma etc,

All such things are merely exercises, precisely graduated

according to the potential of each.

Therefore the proper reaction to everything is not judging it “good” or “bad”,

The true reason that sometimes we are happy or unhappy, satisfied or dissatisfied, in a state of inner peace or conflict is never really because of the behavior of other people or external events as it may seem,

– All the same, what truly matters are never the external circumstances,

never what we do in itself, for it will be soon erased

by all devouring Time,

but our intentin doing it and a positive attitude to life, to everyone and to our wonderful destiny, the Future of Light.

6)

ALMOST ALL OUR PROBLEMS AND SUFFERING

are caused by our stubborn trying to do everything by ourselveswith the dim and deceiving candle of our uncertain and limited human mind with all its ignorant drives and conditionings

instead of following the Divine’s guidance within us.

You have brought about whatever comes to you through your conscious or unconscious desires and fears, expectations and projections, though the false image of yourself, of what you are and what you think that you ought to be; in a word, through your human mind.

therefore by re-examining and changing all this you can

utterly transform your whole life.

Indeed it is not always easy, but trying instead to change the behavior of other people and the external circumstances seldom works, or not for very long, does not bring about the desired results.

7)

WE CAN BE INFINITELY HAPPPY, JOYFUL, LOVING

COMPLETELY FULFILLED RIGHT NOW

whatever the external circumstances may be.

We must live with the utmost intensity as if we knew that we would die on the morrow at dawn.

RIGHT HERE AND NOW WE CAN BE INFINITELY SERENE,

in an intense state of Peace, Love and Vision.

We do not necessarily need to wait until we have found our Guru, studied more spiritual texts, done more meditations, etc.

All we really have to do

Is to break through the Veil of illusions preventing us from realizing

that this state of Peace and Love is our natural state,

has always secretly been.

How?

There is no “how”, or far too many.

DO IT RIGHT NOW.

8)

ALMOST EVERYONE AROUND US IS NOT YET THERE

IN ANY REAL SENSE.

Indeed the Higher Self abides deep within everyone, but on the surface of their beingthere are usually only the programs inserted in the computer of their brain by their culture, family, education, friend, newspapers books, TV etc:

apart from those who have already reached at least a certain level

of personal evolution, all others are like puppets pulled

by the hidden forces of their lives.

Therefore never inwardly react to whatever others may do

but remain always in a state of deep peace within from where you can

begin to help and if possible to Awaken those

who are ready for it.

9)

Notwithstanding the appearances,

everyone we ever meet, no matter how deeply inwardly still asleep,

IS THE DIVINE under the mask

of their body and mind.

Remember this when you meet anyone, and see how your relationship with them and how they respond to you will change, because then:

all contact with even the most “ordinary” persons becomes a high wonder

and mystery, because then you are aware of interacting

with the Divine through them.

10)

THE DIVINE’S LIGHT AND GRACE

ARE ALWAYS WITH US,

just covered up by all the divagations of our mind, for we are never alone, never without Him, even when we are unable to feel Him.

The Divine loves us:

We all have a very personal, unique relationship with Him, and always

He showers us with countless gifts, although

so few are aware of it.

The Divine is always in all and all things, whoever we meet is the Beloved under a mask.

The reason is that to a considerable extent you are still identified with the smallness of your surface being, with all its conditionings and limitations, and your ego knows only too well that the Divine’s Peace, Joy, Love would dissolve them, see them as their own death and resists them.
